"Old Mother Hubbard" lyrics

"Old Mother Hubbard"

Old Mother Hubbard
She went to the cupboard
To fetch her poor dog a bone
But when she got there
Her cupboard was bare
So then the poor dog had none

She went to the fruiterer's
To buy him some fruit
But when she came back
He was playing the flute
(Oh-oh, playing the flute)

She went to the hatter's
To buy him a hat
But when she came back
He was feeding the cat
(Oh-oh, feeding the cat)

She went to the barber's
To buy him a wig
But when she came back
He was dancing a jig
(Oh-oh, dancing a jig)

She went to the cobbler's
To buy him some shoes
But when she came back
He was reading the news
(Oh-oh, reading the news)

Old Mother Hubbard
She went to the cupboard
To fetch her poor dog a bone
But when she got there
Her cupboard was bare
So then the poor dog had none
Poor dog
